Bermel started swimming in a club at age 4-5 and by 13 was a member of the national junior team. In 1983 he won the European Youth Championships in medley and backstroke events. In 1991, after qualifying for the World Cup in Australia he retired from competitive swimming. By 2000, he returned to the pool to compete in the masters category. This was a difficult task as he started smoking and gained weight up to 112 kg, but he quickly shed 20 kg by training.[3]

He is a married to Monika[3] and has a son, Thore (b. 1998),[4] and a daughter, Lena-Sophie (b. 1996). Both children are competitive swimmers, and Lena-Sophie already won a silver medal at the European Junior Swimming Championships in Antwerp (2012). They live in Elmshorn.[5][6]
